Switch

class MonitorControl.Switch(name, inputs={}, output_names=[], stype=None, state=0, active=True)

Bases: MonitorControl.Device

Three basic switch types are recognized: “1xN”, “Nx1” and “2x2”. The latter is a transfer switch, which is just a convenient way of handling two parallel 2x1 switches.

Public attributes::

inkeys - sorted list of input names (for Nx1 and 2x2) outkeys - sorted list of output names (for 1xN and 2x2) outname - output port name for Nx1 switch parent - states - a list of str possible switch configurations state - actual configuration stype - 1xN, Nx1 or 2x2

Public attributes inherited from Device::
